Our Sheltie
 

our 13 year old shetie had a stroke today.... so scary.... he is in the vet hospital.... Not for sure what the future will hold for our furbaby..... :(

((Goofy) my heart goes out to you. I hope that your Sheltie may have your love and comfort during this period. There is nothing that compares to the love relationship between human and pet . . .

Aw... Goofy... :hug:

My heart, prayers and thoughts are for you tonight... :hug:

I feel you pain... :hug:

I'm so sorry...13 years is a long time to have a pet and a lot of love shared. Sending you positive thoughts...vets are so expensive and our pets are priceless. :( :hug:

Oh Goofy, I am so sorry. hopefully yout furkid will have a good outcome and give you more happiness.

oh, how terrible. I hope he can recover.

My heart goes out to you!

I'm so sorry to hear about your dog. I know he's a big part of your family and we hate to see them suffer. We are all thinking about you and your Sheltie. Barbo

ahhhh Goofy... :hug: my heart goes out to your family and your sheltie

I called a little while ago and he hasn't had any more seizures and no more vomiting.... just very weak and very sleepy..... We've already decided that we will not allow him to suffer. Rick and I are going up to see him in a little while after we go visit my FIL who is still in rehab.... my BIL is still here too. Life is pretty crazy right now LOL

(((Goofy))), thinking about sheltie, you, and your family. You are all in my prayers.

((Goofy)) So sorry to hear about your furbaby. Can I ask his name so I can add him to my special prayer list:hug: It is so hard.... my thoughts are with you and your family :hug:

So sorry...our Sheltie did the same thing this past May. She was also 13 and going deaf. We had to put her down and buried her in the back yard under the corkscrew will tree. He name was Bow...hope things go well for you sweet dog.

ahhhhhh :hug: ((((Tammy)))))

thanks for sharing the photo of Bow.

Goofy: :hug:

:hug: Goofy - how is he doing today? I hope it's WELL.

wow.... that photo looks alot like our caspian LOLOL..... but then i guess most shelties look alike LOL.... WELL.... the vet is saying that he did not have a stroke, but they do not know yet why he was vomiting so much. She sid the vomiting is what brought on the seizures.... Rebecca and I went to see him today and they said he had a very long seizure last night and they have put him on phenibarb ( i know i spelled it wrong) He did, on his own, get out of the cage and walk over to me today then walk around a bit but is so weak that he collapsed and just layed there and rolled over on his back for me to scratch his tummy. I dont know what is going to happen with our poochie, but like i already said we will not allow him to suffer :(.... He is such a sweet gentle dog.

ah... how sad for all of you :hug:

WELL..... the vet just called and Caspian passed away a little while ago... :(
I'm sure going to miss him......:(

((Goofy)) I am so very sorry to hear you lost your sweet Caspian. I know you said you wouldn't want him to suffer, Perhaps God made the choice for you so you wouldn't have to. I hope you find comfort in your memories:hug: Keeping you and your family in my thoughts :hug: Nikki

The rainbow bridge is perfect and most of us have seen it. This is a different poem a friend sent to me when I lost my furbaby and I thought I would share it with you.


Treasured Friend


I lost a treasured friend today

The little dog who used to lay

His gentle head upon my knee

And shared his silent thoughts with me.


He’ll come no longer to my call

Retrieve no more his favourite ball

A voice far greater than my own

Has called him to His golden throne.


Although my eyes are filled with tears

I thank Him for the happy years

He let him spend down here with me

And for his love and loyalty.


When it is time for me to go

And join him there, this much I know

I shall not fear the transient dark

For he will greet me with a bark.

I am so sorry about your dog, Caspian! :hug:

You did all you could, you know.

:( ah Goofy... I'm so sorry.

Hey, do you think he's met up with Cooper yet?

yeah i think so... the two of them up there in doggie heaven chasing after balls and rolling over on their backs to have their tummies rubbed... :hug:

I'm so sorry....:( He had a wonderful life with your family and I'm sure he and Cooper are having a grand time. *tears :grouphug:

I'm so sorry for your loss. As a fellow dog person, I know how badly your heart hurts. :hug:

Caspian
 

I'm so sorry for your loss, Goofy.

It is a painful loss. Goofy, I'm so sorry about Caspian. I felt comfort when I read the posts about the possibility of Caspian joining Cooper and the two of them, with all of our beloved pets, being together.

Oh Goofy, I'm so sorry to hear about Caspian, I agree with everyone else, he met up with Cooper and they are frolicking together.

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your dog. We will be putting our sheltie, Sammy down in a couple of days. I'm going back to my home town just to see him. I'm so heartbroken.

(((goofy darlin))) I am so very sorry. :( Ducky just lost her precious furbaby Ginger as well. And then of course Mr. and Mrs. Alffe. Sigh. Precious little ones. Such comfort they give us. :hug:

I know you already received my sympathy and prayers, but I wanted to repeat them here. One can never have enough love when the going gets tough.

Hope you're feeling a little better. Please know I'm thinking of you all. :hug:

Manda I'm so sorry to hear about Sammy. :( Maybe in the spring we can post about new members in our families. :grouphug:

Oh, I missed Manda's comment. I'm so sorry to hear about your furbaby too. :(
